I thought I read Carlos wouldn't be traveling with her? Or has this changed recently?
It's nice to see, both from Dani (who still want sto put in the effort) and Carlos (who kinda takes a risk with "an older player").
I remember from the days Justine was still playing that Justine and Carlos were always very complimentary about Dani.In several interviews (Belgium) they described her strenght as "her intelligence" and her weakness as "her movement"
I think we all know Daniela is an intelligent girl. Whether she has the athletic abilities à la Justine or Li NA, I don't know, ... but still very exciting to see this parntership

Daniela-Is-Mine

Same! Super excited to see the motivation. Reading your post just got me pumped again

^
She obviously realises her career is almost over and she needs to give it her all now before it's too late.

With players like Li, Fran etc winning their first slams a bit older there's no reason she can't have a good year if she works on her movement and has Carlos working on an actual gameplan (and coaching from the stands hopefully)

This is the most excited I've been about Dani for a long time. The right coach and motivation can do wonders, and Rodriguez is the best coach out there in my opinion in terms of getting the most of his athletes.

This match nearly killed me. I was so convinced she was going to lose it after blowing a 40-0 lead serving for the match. It was a delight to watch her play tennis during this period(BTW the removal of the European indoor circuit hurt Daniela more than any other player.She always played her best during this part of the year.)

thats why i miss those tournaments so much and still hope to see zurrich, filderstadt and leipzig back in calendar...someday...
